Brexit means Brexit

Unite for Europe march reimagined by Cities and Memory.

This is our take on the sounds of Brexit, a sonic representation of how we experience the debate about Britain leaving the EU. Voices of people who voted Leave on the grounds of immigration issues are interspersed with meaningless soundbites from the Prime Minister "Brexit means Brexit" and "red, white and blue Brexit" among others, while clips from the pro-EU Unite for Europe march in London in June provide a counterpart. The piece is designed to illustrate the tension and the void opening up in British society between those looking outward to the world openly, and those who wish to close down and are closed to other cultures, other races and other nationalities.
